Quotes for Midsummer Night's dream! =D
Ay me! for aught that I could ever read,
Could ever hear by tale or history,
The course of true love never did run smooth.
--
Lysander, Act I, scene i
Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste.
--
Helena, Act I, scene i
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind;
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
--
Helena, Act I, scene i
And therefore is Love said to be a child,
Because in choice he is so oft beguiled.
--
Helena Act I, scene i
But earthlier happy is the rose distill'd,
Than that which withering on the virgin thorn
Grows, lives and dies in single blessedness.
--
Theseus, Act I, scene i
O hell! to choose love with another's eye.
--
Hermia, Act I, scene i
Nay, faith, let me not play a woman; I have a beard coming.
--
Flute, Act I, scene ii
A lion among ladies is a most dreadful thing.
--
Bottom, Act III, scene i
Helena's Soliloquy!HELENA: How happy some o'er other some can be!
Through Athens I am thought as fair as she?
But what of that? Demetrius thinks not so;
He will not know what all but he do know.
And as he errs, doting on Hermia's eyes,
So I, admiring of his qualities.
Things base and vile, holding no quantity,
Love can transpose to form and dignity.
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.
Nor hath Love's mind of any judgment taste;
Wings, and no eyes, figure unheedy haste.
And therefore is Love said to be a child,
Because in choice he is so oft beguiled.
As waggish boys in game themselves forswear,
So the boy Love is perjured everywhere.
For ere Demetrius looked on Hermia's eyne,
He hailed down oaths that he was only mine;
And when this hail some heat from Hermia felt,
So he dissolved, and show'rs of oaths did melt.
I will go tell him of fair Hermia's flight.
Then to the wood will he to-morrow night
Pursue her; and for this intelligence
If I have thanks, it is a dear expense.
But herein mean I to enrich my pain,
To have his sight thither and back again.
Yours truly,
Duke Of Porn
